Cagliari vs Napoli Preview

Cagliari

Cagliari’s woes have continued in the new Serie A season, as they lost against Lecce in the third round. Despite having a man advantage for the entire second half, the Rossoblù were unable to equalize and eventually fell to their third straight winless match.

Now Cagliari are on a three-match winless streak and sit 17th in the table with Roberto Piccoli scoring the only goal so far for Cagliari.  Despite having notable names in the squad, new manager Davide Nicola has yet to make a significant impact.

Cagliari’s H2H stats against Napoli are disastrous, with only one victory in the last 26 meetings. Given their poor start to the season, hopes for a positive result in the upcoming match against Napoli seem slim.

Napoli

Napoli survived a scare against Parma in the last round. The Gli Azzurri were trailing 0-1, but eventually managed to win in injury time, thanks to goals from Romelu Lukaku and André-Frank Zambo Anguissa. Lukaku, making his debut as a substitute, netted his first goal for the club.

However, we should note that Parma were with 10 men from the 75th minute, after goalkeeper Bruno Suzuki was sent off, forcing defender Enrico Del Prato to take his place. Despite Parma’s valiant effort, Napoli capitalized on their numerical advantage to seal the win.

After a disappointing loss in the first round, they are now on a two-match winning streak. Considering that they are playing against Cagliari, the chances of grabbing another three points look promising.

Cagliari vs Napoli Prediction

• Pick: Napoli to Win
• Odds: 1.82 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Cagliari 0-2 Napoli

Napoli have a seven-match unbeaten streak against Napoli. In four of these matches, Partenopei managed to emerge victorious. Despite losing their Serie A opener, Antonio Conte’s side has bounced back, now sitting sixth in the table with six points.

Conversely, Cagliari have had a dreadful start to the season and are likely to be involved in the relegation battle. Moreover, Davide Nicola’s side have problems with the offence, as they barely create any dangerous moments.

Napoli’s dramatic last-minute victory against Parma will undoubtedly boost their confidence. Recent signings Romelu Lukaku, David Neres, and Scott McTominay have significantly bolstered their squad. We suggest picking the guests to triumph in this encounter. 

Cagliari vs Napoli Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Napoli Over 1.5 Goals
• Odds: 1.81 (22Bet)

In their last seven H2H matches, Napoli managed to score two or more goals on three occasions. We don’t exclude the possibility of the same happening in this game as Cagliari have issues in the defence. 

Antonio Conte is gradually shaping his ideal squad, and we are likely to see an increasingly cohesive lineup for the Partenopei.  Romelu Lukaku will take the place of Victor Osimhen, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia remains the creative force driving Napoli’s attack.

We anticipate Napoli won’t settle for a narrow lead and will push to maintain control until the final whistle. Given the current form of both teams, we pick Napoli to score over 1.5 goals against Cagliari.
